Episode 22: Jeremy Bentham

Thanks to Giles, who introduced me to Jeremy Bentham, a very familiar name for Doctor Who fans, particularly of my generation.

Jeremy and I chat about the early days of fandom, his part in the formation of the Doctor Who Appreciation Society, his work as a writer on Doctor Who Weekly and Doctor Who Monthly and his book Doctor Who - The Early Years. We also discuss his involvement in social events, such as conventions, the First Thursday Fitzroy Tavern evenings where Giles introduced us, and the launch party fan events he organised for the New Series.

And I couldn't resist the opportunity for a brief detour into the world of Missing Episodes.

The opening music is Three Guitars Mood 2 and, yes, that is Richard playing the ukulele and kazoo on possibly the worst ever version of the Doctor Who theme tune at the end.
